Postdoctoral Fellowships in Theoretical Astrophysics at CITA

CITA is a national centre for theoretical astrophysics located at the University of Toronto. The Institute expects to offer several postdoctoral fellowships of two to three years. The starting date will be 1 September, 2010. Funds will be available for travel and other research expenses. A Ph.D. in any field of theoretical astrophysics is required. Fellows are expected to carry out original research in theoretical astrophysics under the general supervision of the permanent faculty whose interests include: cosmology, interstellar matter, relativistic astrophysics, star and planet formation, galaxy formation, high energy astrophysics, gravitation and numerical relativity.

We would prefer electronic submissions. Please check http://www.cita.utoronto.ca under “Working at CITA” for instructions. Applicants unable to do this should send curriculum vitae, statement of research interests and arrange to have 3 letters of recommendation sent to: Prof. N.
